law" We had been promised freedom
on this condition by those having US
in custody, but we could not afford to
do or say anything that would dishonor
the principles WuIoh God mad revealed
IN rs. The glories and beauties of
the celestial world had been revealed to
tbe.Saints, and they would undergo any
prlyation In Old r TO obtain them The
sermons being preached by those in
prison would yet yield fruit. After
suffering. then come the blessings. They
might, possibly, not have followed the
commandments of God thoroughly; the
Saints mad been neglectful; they should
always be prepared for the changes of
life, for the trials and prosecutions of
the future. Apostle Snow had no
language to express the trouble which
the Lord had in store for His people and
through which they must pass ere they
are purified. He cited the case of JOB,
whose trials and sufferings bad been
recorded in the Scriptures, as an
example of how the Lord tried people in
ancient days, and asked what we would
think nowadays if tried in a similar
manner? Job said, God hath giVrn
and God hath taken away" He was
resigned to the will of cod. When men
had suffered sufficiently, God always
ordered affairs for the good of the
individual. Gods approval and smiles
were sufficient to encourage the Saints
in their labors, and he earnestly hoped
they would merit them.

Sub Rosa

The term "under the rose" as imply
ing secrecy, had its origin during the
year B. c. Az, at which time Pausani-
as, the commander of the Confederate
fleet, was engaged in All intrigue with
Xerxes for the marriage of his daugh-
ter and the subjugation Of Greece to the
Median rule. Their negotiations were
carried oil in building attached to the
temple of Minerva, called the Brazen
House, the roof Of which was 4 garden
forming a bower of roses; so that the
plot, which was conducted with the ut
most secrecy, was literally matured
under the rose IL was discovered, how
ever, BY slave, aud, as the sanctity OF
the place forbade the Athenians to force
Pausanias out, or kill him there, they
finally walled him In and left him 10 die
Of starvation. Ii finally grew 10 be n
custom among the Athenians 10 wear
roses in their hair whenever they wished
TO communicate TO another a secret
which they wished to be kept inyiolate.
Hence the saying, sub rosa, among
them, and now among almost all

apes are particular fond of these crabs,
which are very shy and wonderfully
quick in their movements. The crabs
live in deep holes In the sand, but spend

about. They range in size from that Of

The claws are not large, but have grip

The apes make their daily raids on the

them in capturing one. Usually how

the ape is In the air during his spring

Signs of Coming Of Spring.

When country roads begin to thaw
In mottled spots of damp and dust,
And fences by the margin draw
Along the frosty crust
Their graphic silhouettes, say,
The spring is coming round this way.
When morning-time is bright with sun,
And keen with wind, and both confuse
The dancing, glancing eyes OF one
With tears that ooze and ooze-
And nose-tips weep as well as they,
The spiing is coming round this way.
When suddenly some shadow bird
Goes wavering beneath the gaze,
And through the hedge the moan Is heard
OF kline that cease to Craze
In grasses dead, l smile and say,
The spring is coming round this way.
When knotted horse-tails are united,
And teamsters whistle here and there,
And clumsy mitts are laid aside,
And choppers hands are bare,
And chips are thick where children play,
The spring is coming round this way.
When through the twigs the farmer tramps,
And troughs are chucked beneath the trees,
And fragrant hints OF sugar-camps
Astray in ever breeze,
And early March seems middle-May,
The spring is coming round this way.
When coughs are changed to laughs, and
when
Our frowns melt into smiles OF glee,
And all our blood thaws out again
In streams Of ecstasy,
And poets wreak their roundelay,
The spring is coming round this way.
